WD40 will take it off well too, just not as fast Thanks for the tip!

Take a 4.6is to the track and a bone stock E36 M3 vert to the track and if the X5 doesn't hang...

My e30 has like an old cottage smell lol. My father's M5 though has an amazing smell ever since he got the car and it hasn't gone away. It's hard to describe but (to me anyways) it smells like when you sniff a nice cuban cigar before lighting it. It's very subtle but it makes the atmosphere in the car seem classier, which is suiting because it's one hell of a classy car.

My dad keeps telling me I'm young and reckless because my clutches only tend to last 100,000 km or so...lol... Clutch should last 250,000Km give or take a few.

Hmmmm and last question. What kinda of ticket/suspension or whatever is possible getting caught with no cats?

Doogee + FI =

Usually this kind of inspection is done when you are new to a company. Some companies will request this when you add a vehicle to a policy as well. The number of companies asking for this has decreased quite a bit recently as often the inspection results in cancellation of the policy. Paying to have a car inspected then canceling the policy was a waste of money. Now they just deal with the misrepresentation and undeclared equipment when there...

It gives me peace of mind. we did an oil change on our leased X5 at around the 30,000 KM mark. we had to cut the oil filter off it was so soaked with dirty oil.

winter tires, dump a bunch of shit in your trunk, keep your gas tank full and take it easy. toronto doesn't get a lot of snow, you'll be fine. Then again, if you're serious about it, it can't hurt to buy a rally car.
